Default Hoyt Katera XL

Some are, some aren't. They start @ $599 and go to $1200. We sell the Katera XL for 10 bills more than that. The Katera is $799. The KateraXL, Seven37 are around 850.....the Pro Elite is around 1100 something.....

The best ain't cheap ya know. Personally, I think the cost of bows across the board is absolutely ridiculous. Man, I like that shop discount more and more all the time.

LOL

Well I am about to pull the trigger on the Hoyt, I am having sticker shock. It's an extra 100+ than what i paid for GTO.

The issues is I want the Elite, but it's like datingthe psycho chick in college. She does somethings that are wonderful to you, but putting up with her drama is killer In the end you love the Jekyll part, but Hyde is part of the deal[&:]

We sell the Katera for $809 and the Katera XL for $859.
From what I have seen here in the west we are right on as far as prices go. I have seen some shops a bit less and a bit more.

That may be true, but the sales numbers are up. So from a company point of view why not be in the same price range as Mathews? After all, the high price of Mathews doesn't hurt theirsales on bit, so it only makes sence for Hoyt to match them in price.We sell the Dren for $809 and the Dren LD for $859,like the Hoyts we arerighton in the price range for Mathews inour area.

Prices have agreeably went up but we have still sold them as well if not better this year. Until people stop paying it, they will continue to go up.
